This is one of the seminal and most influential articles in the field of research that finds itself at the intersection between theatre and performance studies and animal studies, which Laura Cull has named Performance Animal Studies. In this article, Chaudhuri makes a strong argument for an understanding of theatre beyond the human and for theatre and performance studies to take the animal seriously as a key subject in the production and dissemination of these practices. Her influential term, zooësis, is precisely designed to expand the field and integrate the animal in academic and practice based discourses. - LOURDES OROZCO
